Fox dipstick not going in all the way

[Jatt92GT]

1992 GT, bbk shorty headers. dipstick tube has no odd bends or anything. i think the dipstick goes down all the way through the tube, but doesnt go further into the block. now i have no way of checking my oil. any solution?

Did you just install the headers and now your having this issue ?
If so, are you sure the tube is all the way in the block ?
There is a bracket that comes off the dipstick tube and mounts to one o the header bolts,
is that installed correctly ?

Does the thread title qualify for special recognition?

Maybe if it was an axle shaft and the title was "Can't get my shaft into the rear end all the way" then we would be talkin'......

@Jatt92GT we would like to help, but need more info about what changed or is going on. I’m wondering not only about the timing of the headers, but if the tube is bent.
